Best PCI card available on the market

bysantacruzbros Feb 3, 2006
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Price Quality (for PCI) Streaming video/DVD playback Composite/S-video out
Cons No Battlefield 2 driver yet No DVI DirectX 8.1
Recommended it? Yes

Cons Large power needs, large size, not cheap
